Welcome to 32fishing. What’s significant about the number 32? 32 is the percentage of fishing time actually fishing and catching fish. The other 68% of the time fishing is spent enjoying the fact that you are fishing and not working. Fishing is about getting away, having fun, being able to relax and occasionally catching a fish or two. I hope you enjoy 32fishing and be sure to come back often for news and updates. Thanks and happy fishing.

I love fishing topwater. Nothing beats watching a little lure sitting nicely on top of the water suddenly be viciously gulped up by a nice largemouth or smallmouth. In the morning time, in the evening, when nothing seems to be biting, I usually tie a topwater on in hopes for that memorable crashing of hungry bass on the end of…

I imagine it is a cold and dark world, the Land of Lost Lures. It’s not a place most fishermen like to think about. I’m sure there are some dark forces or evil goblins that live down there hiding under the knotted limbs that look like an old witches hand. I’ve stopped counting how many lures I’ve lost to that…

We’ve all heard of the ‘Diet Roller Coaster’ but what about the ‘Fishing Roller Coaster’? With record high temperatures in March and frost warnings in April, it seems the fishing has been hit and miss for the past month or so. The water temperatures rose above 60 and got close to triggering the spawning season and the the temps dropped.…

We’ve all been fishing without a boat and many of us have spent all our lives fishing without a boat. But is there a way to get onto the water and off the shore without a boat? There are actually quite a few options with many of them being quite affordable. One of the first times I ever stepped off…

I think every fisherman has his favorite lures. It may have been lures that his father or grandfather introduced him too or it may just be ones he discovered later on. I would have to say that my favorite lure is the Rooster Tail. I didn’t start using Rooster Tails for warm water fishing until I went fishing for trout…

With the recent high temperatures in the Midwest and elsewhere, you may have been tempted to start fishing with your regular spring and summer fishing gear. I know I was looking forward to casting a line the other day while at the lake. I walked up to the shoreline to see if I could see any fish or bait…

When it comes to fishing for bass and pan fish, I prefer a good spinning reel with about 6lb line on it and a light action rod. Over the years I’ve had the experience of fishing with many different reels. While I’ve spent over $100 on a reel, I usually look for ones under $100. I find one can get…

It’s been a mild winter and as the sun is shining outside, I can’t help but think about getting ready for spring fishing. While the fishing can be slower in the spring, you can increase your chances of getting some bites by following a few simple rules. Unlike the summer or late spring when the fish are active and love…

You can’t outrun the cold air now. It’s here and it’s here for a while, unless you live in Florida or other warm climate areas of our globe. But if you live in the Midwest, on the East or out West in America; the cold is here. But there’s still time for fishing until the waters freeze over and then…

It’s almost like the anticipation of Christmas or your birthday when you are heading out fishing with new fishing lures in your bag. Even if the fishing has been slow lately, I still get excited about trying out the new lures. It’s like when you buy a scratch off ticket or lottery ticket. There’s a high probability that you won’t…
